providing unsurpassed ADC technology with industry-leading DSP expertise.
The ICS-1554 brings exceptional value by providing the highest resolution available at 160 MHz or 180 MHz, and leading edge performance and power consumption with the Virtex-5 FPGA, on a PMC digital receiver. The result is a cost-effective combination of size and performance in a single PMC site.
Simultaneous down conversion of up to 16 arbitrary signal bands is implemented by four Graychip GC4016 digital down converters (DDC). A Xilinx Virtex-5 SX95T FPGA is provided for user-defined signal processing functions, giving greater capacity and lower power consumption than previous generations of digital receivers. The FPGA, which is almost 100% available to the application, provides a powerful signal processing capability that can be loaded with standard functions such as wide band DDC, FFT and time stamping, or which can be programmed by the user.
This unique combination of features makes the ICS-1554 extremely attractive in a wide range of applications, but especially Software Defined Radio. No competing product provides better throughput in demanding applications such as signal intelligence, communications, radar, wireless test & measurement, 3G & 4G cellular base station development, smart antenna, radar beam forming and satellite ground stations.
The ICS-1554 further extends our industry-leading range of Software Defined Radio solutions by providing industry-leading resolution with the new 16-bit converters and providing maximum signal processing capability with minimum power consumption via the Virtex-5 FPGA.
